Origins:
 
Harvey Dent was born into a life of hardship. Growing up in a lower-class family, Dent was raised with an instinctive dislike and mistrust for the upper-class. His violent, cruel and mentally ill father frequently bullied and abused him as a child, with his favourite game being flipping his double-headed coin promising to spare the child a beating if the coin landed tails. These harsh surroundings resulted in Dent developing repressed mental illnesses of his own, such as bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. His hard work ethic, however, allowed him to rise to become a lawyer and, eventually, the District Attorney.
As the youngest and brightest district attorney in the history of Gotham City, Harvey Dent worked alongside Commissioner Gordon and Batman to stem the tide of crime and corruption that was overtaking the city. At the time of his job as D.A., the worst criminal threat in Gotham was nigh omnipotent mafia boss Carmine Falcone, "The Roman." After Dent struck several blows to the Roman's Empire, Falcone hired the likes of Mickey "The Mink" Sullivan to eliminate the D.A. However, the attempt by Mickey's gang to take out Dent failed. His alliance with Gordon and Batman ended tragically when Sal Maroni, believing Dent to be responsible for the death of his father, threw acid in his face during a trial. Dent was horribly scarred on the left side of his face.
Horribly disfigured, the final link in a fragile mind that was abused as a child was broken. With the left side of his face changed forever and the right unaffected, Dent became the criminal mastermind Two-Face. Two-Face became obsessed with the duality in all things and let all of his decisions fall on the flip of a coin, the double-headed silver dollar, scarred on one side, that was given to him years ago by his father.
